He exhaled heavily.
The empress dowager, who was originally looking at herself in the bronze mirror, snorted coldly.
"Oh, you came in such a hurry, are you afraid that I will swallow your sweetheart?"
Su Jianyue put down the bowl in her hand and pinched the empress dowager's sleeve and shook it.
"The Queen Mother has misunderstood your Majesty's intention. Your Majesty came here in such a hurry because he must be afraid that I would make you cry. After all, I am really good at making people cry!"
"Why are you constantly making excuses for a stinky man? He doesn't follow the rules and regulations and brought people into the palace. I'm afraid that in his heart, I'm no different from an old hag who eats people!"
"Your Majesty... is this what you mean?"
Su Jianyue had a dark face.
A pair of eyes that seem to be able to speak.
Look straight at him.
...
...
It’s as if she’s saying: If you dare to object, don’t even think about getting into my bed for at least three days!
Xiao Yuqi said very tactfully, "That's right. I was afraid that Yue'er didn't know the rules and would offend the Queen Mother, making her unhappy. That's why I came in so eagerly."
The sneer on the Queen Mother's face became even more intense.
"The emperor has made me unhappy more than once or twice. Compared with me, Yue'er is much more pleasing!"
"I feel a little embarrassed when the Queen Mother praises me like this!"
She turned her head and made a face at Xiao Yuqi with a smug look on her face.
Dark little face and white eyes!
Xiao Yuqi laughed helplessly.
This girl!
What should he do with her?
"Your Majesty, if you have something to do, go and do it first. I still have to accompany the Queen Mother for her beauty treatment. Your Majesty, you are a grown man, it is not convenient for you to be here!"
A clear order to leave.
Xiao Yuqi just gave a threatening look.
The empress dowager protected Su Jianyue behind her like a child.
"I don't care how you tied such a good girl to your side, but now that she has entered Ci'an Palace and caught my eye, I will not allow you to bully her anymore."
"I……"
Xiao Yuqi had no way to defend himself.
Why did he bully her?
Su Jianyue smiled again, showing her big white teeth.
With that dark face, the whole person has an inexplicable sense of joy.
Xiao Yuqi's head was buzzing and he held his forehead with his hand.
"Just consider it as my meddling in other people's business, you guys... continue!"
Xiao Yuqi turned around and looked at the large group of people following him.
One by one, they were in pain from holding back their laughter.
He raised his leg and kicked the person closest to him in the butt.
"Why don't you leave quickly? You're getting in the way standing here!"
Seeing this.
Duan Chengzhi silently moved two steps to the side.
Afraid of being hurt by mistake.
A group of people came in a mighty manner and left in dismay.
Su Jianyue bravely slammed the door of the hall shut.
Xiao Yuqi outside happened to meet Pojun's puzzled face.
"Where's Miss Su?"
Xiao Yuqi rolled his eyes at him.
"Too much talk!"
Po Jun: “???”
he?
Talkative?
God, please send someone down to listen to his grievances!
In order to be a qualified secret guard, he almost made himself mute, okay?
The Queen Mother was lying on the chaise longue.
Su Jianyue peeled off the dried mask on his face bit by bit.
Her movements were gentle, and Nanny Gui and the two first-class palace maids who served the Empress Dowager closely followed her steps very carefully.
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes and said, "You are completely different from what I imagined."
"Does the Queen Mother like me like this?"
"It's OK! It's hard to say whether I like it or not!"
How long have they known each other?
If only it were that easy to fall in love with someone.
She, the queen mother, has long been dead and no one knows where she is!
Su Jianyue didn't care about the Queen Mother's answer.
She said to herself, "I like the Queen Mother very much anyway."
"You are quite flexible!"
Such a lively and beautiful girl, no wonder she wins the favor of His Majesty.
"What I said is the truth!"
Su Jianyue said: "You and His Majesty, although you are not related by blood, you are destined to be mother and son. His Majesty lost his mother at a young age, and he must cherish the fate of having such a kind mother like the Queen Mother."
"It's just that His Majesty had a rough childhood. He understands the warmth you give him, but he is not good at expressing it."
"Although I don't know how your majesty and the queen mother get along, I can guess that your majesty must have extra respect for you, the queen mother, as his mother, by looking at the queen mother's food, clothing and daily expenses, which are all more exquisite and appropriate than your majesty's. "
These words touched the heart of the empress dowager.
"He has me as his mother in his heart, so why does he always go against me?"
"Queen Mother, His Majesty is an independent person. He naturally has his own thoughts and his own temperament. His Majesty is the ruler of a country. If he is just a puppet, how long can he sit firmly on the throne?"
Su Jianyue used a handkerchief to clean the empress dowager's face.
"This time, in the northern border, I witnessed people fighting for a sip of water, with their heads broken and bloody. I also saw people eating grass roots and tree bark to survive. It was common for them to sell their children for a pound of rice or half a piece of bread. What's worse, the whole family shared one person, causing everyone to get sick and difficult to cure. Such a scene may be hard for the queen mother to imagine, but Your Majesty has seen it with your own eyes. You can imagine how painful it would be for Your Majesty, as the king of a country, to see such a scene?"
The Queen Mother never knew this.
"You can only say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. Your Majesty advocates new laws only because he wants the people of Tianyu to have enough food to eat, enough clothes to cover their bodies, and a life of increasing prosperity. The country is peaceful and the people are safe. Conversely, only when the people are safe can the country be peaceful!"
Su Jianyue's words were like a stone thrown into the empress dowager's heart, causing ripples.
She knew since she was born that as a daughter of the Wang family, she should devote her life to the family's success or failure, no matter what.
So, she failed to marry Xiao Linshen as she wished.
Married to the previous emperor, she became an unfavored concubine.
At the last moment, after all the hard work, he finally became the final winner.
However, after Xiao Yuqi came to power, he clashed with Xiao Yuqi again and again over the sake of his mother's family.
Until now.
The fiefdom is gone.
Xiao Linshen's life or death is uncertain.
She received a letter from home every day, scolding her for being useless.
After so many years of living like this, I'm already tired of it.
If possible.
She just wanted to retire to the countryside with Xiao Linshen and live together.
perhaps……
The Queen Mother set her gaze on Su Jianyue.
This girl is an opportunity.
Think about it this way.
The Queen Mother's depression suddenly dissipated.
Since His Majesty likes it, why should she object?
For the Wang family, it is better for His Majesty to marry a commoner than to marry a woman from a wealthy family. It is a new arm, much better!
Su Jianyue picked up the bronze mirror and shone it on the empress dowager's face.
"Look, your complexion looks much better now, doesn't it?"
The Queen Mother cast her eyes on the bronze mirror.
Through the looking glass.
She saw Su Jianyue's lively eyes...
